Hello
Yesterday I saw a pattern equiped with DLE35R with exhaust tuned pipe MVVS.
It's very very powerfull, plane climbs indefinitely. Starting hand, no constraint number of flights or flight time, fuel cheap.
It's awesome.

Clade,
Which propeller was being run, have you any information?
As far as the right kind of power, the benchmark FORME has always been the YS170-175. Ability to turn YS sized props in mid range with good torque is what I am measuring and comparing against. The only 2 stroke in the size range I am looking in so far with the power curve required is the OS...The OS can be flown slow or fast....that's the bottom line for me. I also have my latest model which will be powered with a DLE55 2 stroke. Now that's power to burn at any throttle setting, but is probably not practical foreveryone and doesn't count as a 2 stroke example......
I don't deny that other two strokes in the 30cc class have the necessary power to go vertical. Point is at what throttle setting and with how much lead? Heck,a couple years ago I proved it with my SAP180 powered model.... was terrific but was missing the low end torque for grunt work and required leading the throttle to get the model vertical with authority. And I definitely made it work
